A loss of electrons by an atom creates an anion? true or false

2 answers:

4 0

That is false.

An ion is "an electrically charged atom or group of atoms formed by the loss or gain of one or more electrons."

But in detail anion means gaining of electrons.

So, a gain of electrons by an atom creates an anion.

False, a loss of electrons would make the atom positive, it will become a Cation.

Answer:

The answer to your question is molality = 0.61

Explanation:

Freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid turns into a solid if a solute is added to a solution, the freezing point changes.

Data

Kf = 1.86 °C/m

molality = ?

ΔTc = 1.13°C

Formula

ΔTc = kcm

Solve for m

m = ΔTc/kc

Substitution

m = 1.13 / 1.86

Simplification and result

m = 0.61

What is a chemical reaction. in your own words but be more detailed about what you say.

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

A chemical reaction is the change in chemical form rather than physical due to an outside force. This can come from something as simple as a change in temerature to as large as a specific element or compound.

Consider 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O. To produce 1.2 g water, how many grams of H2 are required? Report to the correct number of significant

Elden [556K]

Answer:

0.133 mol (corrected to 3 sig.fig)

Explanation:

Take the atomic mass of H=1.0, and O=16.0,

no. of moles = mass / molar mass

so no. of moles of H2O produced = 1.2 / (1.0x2+16.0)

= 0.0666666 mol

From the equation, the mole ratio of H2:H2O = 2:2 = 1:1,

meaning every 1 mole of H2 reacted gives out 1 mole of water.

So, the no, of moles of H2 required should equal to the no, of moles of H2O produced, which is also 0.0666666 moles.

mass = no. of moles x molar mass

hence,

mass of H2 required = 0.066666666 x (1.0x2)

= 0.133 mol (corrected to 3 sig.fig)

What is the volume of 14.0g of nitrogen gas at STP?

lozanna [386]

Answer:

The volume of 14.0 g of nitrogen gas at STP is 11.2 liter.

Explanation:

STP stands for standard pressure and temperature.

The International Institute of of Pure and Applied Chemistry, IUPAC changed the definition of standard temperature and pressure (STP) in 1982:

Before the change, STP was defined as a temperature of 273.15 K and an absolute pressure of exactly 1 atm (101.325 kPa).

After the change, STP is defined as a temperature of 273.15 K and an absolute pressure of exactly 105 Pa (100 kPa, 1 bar).

Using the ideal gas equation of state, PV = nRT you can calculate the volume of one mole (n = 1) of gas. With the former definition, the volume of a mol of gas at STP, rounded to 3 significant figures, was 22.4 liter. This is classical well known result.

With the later definition, the volume of a mol of gas at STP is 22.7 liter.

I will use the traditional measure of 22.4 liter per mole of gas.

1) Convert 14.0 g of nitrogen gas to number of moles:

n = mass in grams / molar mass

Atomic mass of nitrogen: 14.0 g/mol

Nitrogen gas is a diatomic molecule, so the molar mass of nitrogen gas = molar mass of N₂ = 14.0 × 2 g/mol = 28.0 g/mol

n = 14.0 g / 28.0 g/mol = 0.500 mol

2) Set a proportion to calculate the volume of nitrogen gas:

22.4 liter / mol = x / 0.500 mol

Solve for x: x = 0.500 mol × 22.4 liter / mol = 11.2 liter.

Conclusion: the volume of 14.0 g of nitrogen gas at STP is 11.2 liter.
